power of yes this technology that is very tempting. israel has its military operation in gaza will continue no matter how much time or force it takes is the mass is denied a chance for a cease fire negotiations well rounded todd districts and laid to waste. the u.s. plan to train ukraine's a regular forces while the a you report the lives of bad on supplying with military technology and equipment. and coming clean on hush hush interrogation tactics. we tortured some folks. who did some things that were contrary to our values president the cia crossed the line when interrogating suspects as analysts

look forward to the release of declassified data on the techniques used. in a very good morning to you just join this morning's kevin i in this is r.t. international it's midnight here now. israel's prime minister is vowing to push on with a military operation in gaza or against quote no matter how much time or force it might take the country refusing to negotiate a fresh cease fire with a palestinian group senior officials say they see no point in holding talks around one hundred forty palestinians have been killed by israeli airstrikes not since friday's failed truce and a video online showing the ferocity of these attacks is take a look for a moment. it

was posted on the lot of be a t.v. channel it shows one garza district being turned to rubble that area was leveled to the ground as you can see by the time they're within just barely an hour. among the structures on the israeli fire was islamic university the i.d.f. said it was targeting the weapon development facility inside the building. is reported. so the i.d.f. is also pushing deeper into gaza in search of one of those soldiers now who they claim was captured by hamas violence outraged palestinians living in the west bank but when they gathered in protests israeli soldiers threw smoke grenades and opened fire killing two and injuring some ninety others the fear is in the west bank. given the very heavy toll felt by palestinian civilians in gaza hamas movement across the palestinian territories had called for a day of rage of protests here in the west bank over the period of yesterday across

the west bank ninety palestinians were injured in various clashes with israeli forces here in some of those clashes live fire was used to palestinian youths were killed by israeli life fire they were shot in the chest and just yesterday evening policy and medical sources also report that a palestinian ambulance was hit directly with israeli live fire lightly and moderately injuring six civilians this is all in the context of around three thousand palestinians coming to demonstrate yesterday across the west bank in outrage at israel's ongoing operation in gaza a. military operation in gaza dubbed protect the verge is the deadliest israeli offensive in years more than six hundred palestinians and sixty six israelis have been killed so that's hundreds more than were killed in two thousand and eight so-called cars led operation and there's the demonstration taking place in washington right now because of it these latest pictures of it hundreds of activists protesting the violence being inflicted on guards and demanding the

united states ends its support for israeli military campaigns against the palestinians artie's lindsey france has more on back. after yet another failed humanitarian ceasefire in gaza the people here gathered for the free palestine protest in front of the white house aren't just grieving for the tragedy happening overseas they're also feeling a lot of impatience impatience because their relatives are the ones ducking for cover in gaza and many of them say this is not just a war of weapons and of ideology it's also a war of rhetoric and perception representatives of this community here in washington say that based on what we've seen so far just this summer alone there are two plans for moving forward from here a line is to proceed as before every time bombs dropped on gaza organize the protests and laments the government and media bias or instigate an about face change the perception of this community in

the government and in the media as first generation americans and immigrants many of them from palestine these people know all too well that they are their relatives best chance at getting representatives of palestine to turn the ear of the president the congress and of course the state department but after a summer of sex tragedy the question is how do you do that when planes human suffering so far hasn't been enough plenty france r.t. washington. and europe the demos are mainly against the israeli operation protestors in berlin way palestinian flags and banners saying the civilians. this is from small the ten thousand marched through paris in support of the palestinian people become from seeing weeks of protests since the start of the conflict some instructions in the name clashes. so we've seen

some of those demonstrations in what might be global protests and growing international outrage at the civilian deaths but some israeli media is still nonetheless throwing a lot of fire we're talking about the latest edition of ati's breaking the set. of course the rhetoric coming from some fringe elements of the israeli media couldn't be doing more to inflame tensions consider that today the times of israel published this op ed entitled when genocide is permissible in which the actual genocide of gazans is explored as the only way to bring israel peace now the article was pulled down but not before archived versions of merge across the internet so for now we can only hope that calmer heads will prevail and that diplomacy will prevent the further slaughter of innocent civilians now let's break this up.

ukrainian military jets are reportedly flying over eastern areas locals say they can hear the sound of explosions in the distance on friday a kindergarten donetsk was bombed luckily it was empty at the time because of the summer break but nonetheless it's left mothers panicking over how best to try to protect the children while many residents trying to flee dangerous spots is still caught in the crossfire. but you you know you do you feel you should. use corporal move a few of the other blue which would. you believe do this to you would you listen you person. the person who wasn't you goodridge. here forces say they've taken control of two terms outside donetsk has government troops attempt to fight to regain the self-proclaimed republics more information reports on the border between russia and ukraine. well what we can see in this new brain could definitely be described as

a very dramatic state to support challenge in clashes there continued with the death toll including among civilian population also continuing to climb as residential areas often get called to the deadly crossfire when ukrainian army and to government forces fired from cities and villages the gaza city itself has claim that at least five residents were killed in the last twenty four hours humanitarian situation the seat remains a very tense electricity there has been cut off for several days already there are also problems with the running water and the officials of the self-worth and republic of the ganske warn that this could lead to a real humanitarian catastrophe and of course in this situation people continue to flee what they call the war zone where no next to the russian ukrainian border every day tens and sometimes even hundreds of people try to cross and to cross it itself very often becomes a very dangerous journey here's one local mayor who was among those organizing the recreation at the time of the intense fire taint. the whole city is destroyed

apartment buildings and private houses alike it's been going on for about eight days there was a pause in the shelling when we managed to take two buses full of refugees out of town then it started again we got transport water we're trying to bring bread into town on the. situation on the ground remains dramatic and so far unfortunately the phrase no any indication that it's could become any better any time so. despite the ukrainian conflict claiming more lives every day care was getting further support from western backers ministration most says it plans to trade in a quick pit to regular forces the national guard fighters while the e.u.'s also quietly lifted a ban on supplying ukraine with weapons and reports. the latest move by the european union has certainly angered moscow the u. has lifted a ban on the supply of military equipment and technology to the ukrainian government but russia's foreign ministry says this amounts to double standards because that

ban was actually imposed last february prevent the then president using such equipment against anti-government protesters but it now seems ok to use the very same equipment in the ongoing conflict in the east of the country which moscow fears could inflame the situation. was removed by the council of europe on the quiet according to moscow which has gone on to say the e.u. is not applying logic to the situation and is in fact just reacting to being prodded by washington washington meanwhile has announced plans to fund train and equip the ukrainian national guard we should point out that this is not part of the ukrainian regular army it's a subsidiary if you like that was recently set up that includes conscripts and also members of the far right including the right sector which is another concern for moscow the pent pentagon hopes to fund bitchiness something like nineteen million dollars although this is still subject to congressional approval. and the west has been putting more pressure on russia accusing moscow of supplying self defense

fighters with arms at the same time foreign affairs it says is therefore another example of double standards. it is blatant hypocrisy not only as the russian foreign ministry said because they wanted to ban such supplies to have a code which but are now giving it to this what but because the actually if used to treat this as a conflict in the first place it's simply a rebellion in the loop so-called legitimate ukrainian authorities are involved in the security operation to. law and order if there is more weapons coming the ukrainian government's way more training more where it looks pretty green for the self-defense forces this will only embolden it to go all the way in using indiscriminate violence in resolving the issue in the east itself way

. every day more deaths every day are harder job for some journalists to get the stories the pictures the truth back now underlining that an american journalist for artie's ruptly video agency's been forced out of ukraine she was detained while filming in the west of the country after ukrainian colleagues tipped off security services. journalist with a camera you know just there was a rub me sticker on my tripod and straightaway said you know russia today first of all they questioned me themselves about seven. i gave them all the details that could give them i gave them my press cards i had nothing to hide and they're my colleagues of history i have i wanted to give them all the information they needed and. fifteen minutes later three policemen came and three officials came from the national security service in ukraine and they were asking me so many questions taking all my details and then when they didn't they didn't believe that

my american passport was real i shouldn't picture of it so they followed me to the hotel until they could see the actual passport they asked me that i absolutely had to give my foot into a and they had to raise it. first of all they put it on their computers so some. source has it right now they have all the footage that it took of myself being questioned and also at the protest. and they gave it back to me it was blank. well it's not the first time by far a journalist computed the ukraine they've been over a dozen cases actually were t.v. crews be barred from entering the country or send away as soon as officials saw the russian id papers this latest case that was the first to target an american citizen last month british journalist graeme phillips also working for r.t. sometimes it was arrested and thrown out of ukraine. crane's president for his part is calling for parliament to be dissolved half the lawmakers refused to label the sulfa clearly dependent the soroti is in the east as toast organizations its move

the director of studies at the institute of democracy and cooperation thinks will bury the legitimacy of the current authorities them. basically a lot of ukrainian politics is explained by money and obviously the war is costing money ukraine is on the brink of default and some of the political parties who. are controlled by oligarchs in it let's never forget the role of oligarchs is absolutely key in ukrainian politics now the new president poroshenko discovers that actually he needs to purge the parliament he needs to stigmatize people who don't agree with his policies and above all he and his cronies the government itself the minute the prime minister and the other ministers they are of course trying to rig the elections by changing the electoral law in advance of the polls so that they get the parliament they want it's obvious that this is worthy of a banana republic this is not what it will be and have it behavior of

a european state. people of several european cities remembering the odessa massacre that for forty six people killed three months ago activists gathered in the spanish capital of madrid to pay their respects to the victims and this is what's been happening in a row where people have a small demonstration to denounce fascism for doesn't black balloons are then released into the air one for each of the victims the tragedy of may the second happened during a ferocious standoff between antigovernment protesters and a group of radical youths right sector nationalists drove those protesters into a government building the city center and then started throwing in molotov cocktails as well. many were burned alive those who tried to skate by climbing on the rueful jumping out of the windows were down all beaten to death. coming up just waiting for a ferry to take them to work in istanbul and every day you'd hope and up in hospital instead other control bus dragging a taxi with it smashed into the water side stop thanks we didn't go into the water

we got more of that coming up we'll explain more also too as you how this ground in iraq and syria the whole so moving in on local media aiming to make the group look slick more savvy we talk about that as well very shortly. a couple of hundred years ago sir thomas moore wrote you an abandoned ship in a storm just because he couldn't control the winds well america no you don't b.s. or tommy stinky wind is blowing and the corporate rats are abandoning ship. the u.s. military was built to square off against the soviet union. over western europe but when you take that conventional military and now try to retire ask it as a counter-insurgency force it creates a lot of gaps and that's the kind of private sector stuff.

dramas that transfield ignored. stories others refused to notice. food since changed the world's lights never. a full picture of today's news. on demand from around the globe. up to. fifty. president barack obama has admitted the u.s. did torture people after the nine eleven attacks the confession follows a highly anticipated report on the cia's so-called expensive methods of interrogation he's going to the details the final declassified version of the senate intelligence committee's report on the cia's torture practices has been

handed back to congress intelligence committee chairwoman dianne feinstein said the report shows abuse that is chilling and far more systematic and widespread than we thought she said the six hundred page document is said to reveal new and shocking details about the cia's detention and interrogation program in the years following the nine eleven attacks those who reviewed it say it shows that the use of the techniques was not effective in collecting unique intelligence or forty watts president obama speaking ahead of the public release of the report reminded that when he became president he signed an executive order to stop porcher we tortured some. we did some things that were contrary to our values. although it was not his administration that was responsible for the program the cia under john brennan did their best to preserve secrecy around the deeds of the previous administration the cia even tempered with the investigation this thursday the cia inspector general

concluded that the agency personnel hacked into senate investigators computers and removed documents from their system back in march john brennan vigorously denied that the agency had done that this week he was forced to admit that the cia officers did hack into investigators computers after many lies and scandals the report is finally being declassified however it stops short of using the word torture to describe the practices lawmakers say it's because such an accusation could have political diplomatic legal and even criminal implications. for f.b.i. agent coleen rowley thinks the upcoming report could further tarnish the u.s. government in the eyes of the public. for starters the cia was afraid of this report they didn't want the american public to know what they had done in terms of the black sites and the authorizing waterboarding etc that's obvious because they destroyed the tapes from before i mean there's been all kinds of cover ups on this

unfortunately it's going to be kind of a tolerance of the executive branch lying to congress and all of our democratic system will will be heard because of this if congress cannot oversee this well we were looking at a really different form of government than what we call ourselves a democracy. one line a denver courtroom became the scene of some heavy handed policing recently you've got the pictures video there released showing a deputy sheriff taking out his temper on a handcuff the defendant will tell you why the cop lost the plot to dot com also the two russian employees are figured out a fresh way now to tell people about the negative health effects of bingeing on burgers and french fries lawmakers propose slapping stomach wrenching pictures on them. like those already home cigarette packs.

and i think. the logan could have you with us the islamic caliphate shown in black on the news wall that was recently declared by jihadists militants in occupied lands in syria and iraq now has got its own media censorship program its harsh new regulations dictate that any reports from the caliphate have to be reviewed by the group's so-called information office the group's already got a media presence on the web including twitter where they post videos and photos promoting their cause even posters urging foreign muslims to join the jihad to become martyrs at mcgahee proves an expert on middle east affairs believes the

media is proving to be an effective tool to promote the group's beliefs. if we take a look at some of the things that they have done and said in terms of the media they have shown some sophistication in dealing with the media clearly try to control the message they have used the various social media outlets to get their message across some of it to use brutality in fact to send a message those look try to show how effective they are. in terms of fighting and part of it they're also using it to recruit fighters by trying to explain and putting on the best image of what their ideological beliefs and to recruit followers. and it's not just a well organized media the self-proclaimed islamic states rapidly assuming the tribute of a genuine nation it's got its own legal code a strict brand of should realize its budget too is estimated at around two billion dollars some which has been stolen some of which has been generously donated by

sponsors in the gulf it's got vast oil fields after snatching them from syria and iraq along with a big army some seven thousand strong plus an ever expanding arsenal to the persecution of christians by iraq's islam militants as seen thousands protested in sydney and melbourne australia as a record community was that christians could disappear from the seized areas of iraq and syria the south thousands flee on mass from jihadists threaten to kill those who refuse to convert to islam. other headlines this hour a powerful blast through a car parts factory eastern china has killed sixty nine workers and injured nearly two hundred it's thought someone may have lit a fire in an area containing flammable dust local officials describe the incident as a serious breach of safety the factory managers have now been arrested for safety standards are a common problem in china's workplaces indeed a fire at a poultry plant killed one hundred nineteen people as an example. in istanbul

a bus he would go smashes through the entrance to this ferry station ramming into a taxi on the way the security footage shows the dramatic crash luckily no one killed there eighteen were injured the two of them critically it's unclear why the driver lost control so badly ferry services from the station understandably have been halted for a while. environmental activists in denmark are trying to disrupt the plans of french energy giant total to drill in for shale gas in the north the press to say they don't want their country following the global hype over the controversial technique known as fracking peter all of us at the site. when france bombed the exploration for shale gas through fracking in twenty eleven it meant that french company total had to search for new locations in order to base their operations they set up in the u.s. the u.k. poland algeria and at the site in northern jutland in denmark this particular site could be up and running by the end of this year or early twenty fifteen now

fracking involves the pumping of high pressured water into the ground to create tiny cracks in the rock which allows access to the shale gas however what we have seen though is a group of activists in this area who are raising concerns over the project they say they fear could cause damage to the environment and their health we are very concerned about the environmental paid on the ground groundwater because we have seen that lots of incidents in the space of the united states and also in poland and in argentina so why not here this protest camp near to the fracking site is just getting set up right now but eventually organizers hope as many as six hundred people will be camped out here to get the message to total that the people of denmark say no to fracking. coming up a variety of programs for your we value travel but world war one to get into the thick of the so called attack of the dead if you're watching us internationally if you're watching us in the u.k. and for you much cause it is there on why american corporate big shots want to move

that businesses across the atlantic these days so coming up. death row inmate joseph would rise in pain during a two hour execution this prolonged suffering was not part of the plan and not constitutional but an accident and not quite a unique wanted that just this year in both oklahoma and my native ohio there have been botched executions due to complications with lethal injection one judge alex kozinski who voted to give would a stay of execution due to the questionable nature of lethal injection drugs said that the good old firing squad would be a lot more humane and his opinion eight or ten large caliber bullets fired at close range and massive damage causing instant death every time i think lethal injection

is popular not for the executed but for society as judge kozinski said shooting someone in the head with a machine gun is instant death so why don't they use the firing squad because that would be messy and raise questions quietly injecting people way from prying public eyes allows the dirty deed to be done without the hassle of ugly news footage i think that it says something odd about society that we must kill the wicked and murderous but could you do it in a bloodless way completely out of sight i don't want to lose my appetite but that's just my opinion. you shall know where you were. boarded by.

june nice and fifteen. this is simon's needs to crush is more terrifying than i could have imagined also weeks of traveling i finally made it to the eastern front where pitched battles seem an almost daily occurrence some months now the russian army has been pushed backwards by the german and austrian garion forces but they make them work for every inch the fines he is fierce the noise deafening and the bravery of the soldiers difficult to have a stage. that's for myself i'm already taking pictures i never thought possible. i just need to make sure i don't run out of slow ends and that i keep my head down. pat.
